    Amazing people are trying to downplay 06Jan.

    The Hill's Morning Report - Presented by Facebook - Officers recount the horror of Jan. 6


    "On Jan. 6, for the first time, I was more afraid working at the Capitol than during my entire Army deployment to Iraq. In Iraq, we expected armed violence, because we were in a war zone. But nothing in my experience in the Army, or as a law enforcement officer, prepared me for what we confronted on Jan. 6," said Aquilino Gonell, a Capitol Police sergeant and Army veteran.

    Crickets from the few here (or fled recently) that side with Green & Gaetz. Despicable attempt to drown out the testimony with a press conference about those arrested and their treatment.
    Hilariously it was cancelled midstream due to people shouting them down and whistling over their BS. The fact that people still support those two and many more on the wrong side of Jan.6 baffles me to no end. Pubs should treat them like the Dems do Anthony "Look at my junk" Weiner, but a lot sadly don't.
    My brother and oldest nephew were hard into Q for months but even they eventually realized they were being played, and played hard, after the election. Reasonable people can come to their senses and still be republican.

    I've got a question maybe somebody can explain to me. I keep seeing video of this black officer Harry Dunn saying him and other black officers were repeatedly called the N word by insurrectionists. I believe he said it was even chanted at one time. So where is the video evidence? Seems there were hundreds of cell phones there and several news media cameras and not one video of insurrectionist using the N word has surfaced. Correct me if I am wrong but this seems like a fabrication to me.

    Pretty much every video of the Jan 6 insurrection has been edited to bleep out the curse words and racial epitaphs. This would include the N word.

    Has nothing to do with "backing the blue". I do not blindly back the blue, sometimes members of any group have an agenda. It is a legit question especially considering the media would have long ago gone after the "insurrectionists" if they had video of just one of them using the N word.

    Wow. With all the videos of the violence against the Capitol Police and all the videos of the violence and destruction of property and all the videos of everything else that day, your gripe is that you haven't seen a video of someone using the "n" word. Wow.

    So since this is a partisan political show just like Russia gate and 2 impeachments which were more partisan political chit.

    So when are we going to have Congressional Hearings on the summer of love that happened in 219 liberal cities, doing $2 Billion in damage to the inner cities and many deaths.

    Would it not be SUPER HYPOCRITICAL for you libs if those hearings aren't held?

    Exactly. Nobody on the Committee is speaking for the seditionists.

    No, it that word had been chanted you know darn well that it would have been posted on social media or reported on by the press. It is a very fair question… with the millions of dollars that have been spent on investigating the events of Jan 6 with all the high tech equipment available, why haven’t we heard anything backing up the black officers claims. Also, as others have pointed out, we have seen hundreds of pictures and videos from the press and on social media with all the pictures and videos that have been posted but again, I nothing supporting the claims of the black officers. And if there is actually anything out there, we damn well would have been made aware.

    January 6 was a terrible day and again people should be punished if guilty. But keep race out of it unless there is proof or evidence that something was indeed said.

    So the Confederate flags were mirages too? Or maybe just a symbol of heritage, and not hate?

    The 2019/2020 riots were at times violent, we had marches and much of downtown Sacramento is still boarded up. However, comparing social unrest in several cities, not a new phenomenon by the way (Watts/Chicago/LA/St. Louis) to a violent attempt to disrupt the transfer of power via democratic process is like trying to compare apples and Mack trucks. It is not even close to the same thing.

    And I could give two deer's nuts if the N word was used. If that is your only concern, you are definitely missing the point.

    No my gripe is that some things being said should be backed up if you want then to be considered credible especially considering how many cameras were going on Jan 6.

    Note I stopped short of calling any of the testifying officers liars but hummmm.
